We're Nick and Terysa and we've become completely obsessed with the idea of sailing around the world and sharing our experiences and information through our sailing lifestyle videos with others. We met travelling around India, and quickly agreed that rather than "settling down" and doing what most normal people do, we wanted to travel and have adventures! We moved onto our 38 foot monohull in 2014, sailed across the Atlantic twice, cruised the Caribbean, Bahamas and Europe, before buying a brand new 45 ft catamaran! We hope you enjoy what we do. Please subscribe, like and share.

Floatopia: A Vision for Sustainable Travel in Raja Ampat **What is Floatopia?** Floatopia is a pioneering eco-tourism initiative nestled in the breathtaking archipelago of Raja Ampat, Indonesia. It comprises a floating villa known as Floatopia and a trimaran sailboat, Big Kanu, both designed to provide immersive, environmentally conscious travel experiences. Our mission is to offer guests unparalleled access to one of the most pristine natural environments on the planet, while maintaining a firm commitment to sustainability and local community benefits. **Why Floatopia?** **Environmental Impact:** Raja Ampat is a marine paradise known for its significant biodiversity, including over 1,300 species of fish and 75% of the world's known coral species. However, like many pristine natural areas, it faces threats from conventional tourism practices that can damage the very wonders they seek to showcase. Floatopia addresses this by integrating eco-friendly technologies and sustainable practices in every aspect of its operations, from energy use to waste management, to ensure minimal environmental impact. **Cultural Integrity and Community Support:** Beyond environmental concerns, Floatopia is deeply committed to preserving the cultural integrity of Raja Ampat and enhancing the well-being of its local communities. Through community-engaged tourism, educational programs, and direct support of local projects, Floatopia aims to ensure that tourism revenues benefit local populations and help to sustain their unique cultural heritage. **Why It Matters:** The concept of sustainable travel is more critical now than ever. By supporting a model that prioritizes ecological and social responsibility, backers of Floatopia contribute to a global shift towards more sustainable tourism practices. This project not only helps protect one of the earth's most incredible ecosystems but also demonstrates a viable alternative to traditional tourism models that can be replicated in other sensitive environments worldwide. **How Backers Can Contribute:** **1. Funding Eco-Friendly Infrastructure:** Contributions will fund the enhancement of Floatopia's sustainable infrastructure, including solar power installations, water purification systems, and eco-friendly building materials for both the floating villa and the Big Kanu trimaran. **2. Supporting Conservation Initiatives:** Funds will also support ongoing conservation efforts such as coral reef restoration projects, wildlife protection programs, and environmental education for local communities and tourists. **3. Empowering Local Communities:** A portion of the funds raised will be directed towards initiatives that empower local communities through skills training in eco-tourism, supporting local artisans and small businesses, and developing community-led environmental projects. **How Contributions Make a Positive Impact:** Every contribution to Floatopia not only helps further the development of the project but also amplifies the positive impact on the environment and local communities. Backers have the unique opportunity to be part of a transformative project that: - **Protects biodiversity** by minimizing ecological footprints and funding direct conservation efforts. - **Supports local economies** by prioritizing local hiring, sourcing, and investing in community development. - **Promotes environmental awareness** among visitors and locals alike, fostering a culture of conservation and respect for nature. **Join Us:** We invite you to join us in making Floatopia a beacon of sustainable travel. Your support is not just a contribution to a project; it's an investment in a sustainable future and a testament to the belief that travel and conservation can go hand in hand. Together, we can ensure that the wonders of Raja Ampat are preserved and cherished for generations to come.
